Chapter 296: Someone Wants to Cut Off Hu
For example, Vice Principal Sun emphasized that the health work of the junior high school must be done well, some teachers have recently been good and worthy of praise, and some other teachers have been a little slack recently and have a bad work attitude; for example, Chen Jian, the director of academic affairs, criticized at the meeting that the atmosphere of early or late self-study in some classes has been very poor, and the classroom is chaotic.
In the end, the key issue is the preparation of the upcoming New Year's Day party.
Several class teachers who had not yet decided to submit the program were criticized by name for the low grade of the programs submitted by a certain two classes, and asked to call back and re-prepare the program for approval.
There were people in the conference room who listened drowsily, such as Lu Yang, and there were people who were frightened or depressed, such as the head teachers who had been criticized by name and a few teachers who had recently behaved badly.
For the junior high school of No. 3 Middle School, this Monday's regular meeting was indeed just a regular meeting, and it was not much different from usual.
At about the same time, in Shanghai Giant Game Company, the meeting at this time was really discussing an important matter.
Private companies are not like schools and units, Lu Yang's No. 3 Middle School junior high school holds a regular meeting once a week, while a large company like Giant has a meeting every morning.
At this morning's meeting, the results came out of the assessment ordered by the boss last Saturday.
In the game department, Team Leader Li, who is in charge of the evaluation of this project, is reporting the results of their group's evaluation to the boss at this time, and more than ten people in the audience are quietly listening.
Team Leader Li: "President, managers, colleagues, last Saturday afternoon. My team and I received orders from the president to evaluate the feasibility of adapting the online game under the name of Wen Qiu, the platinum author of the starting point Chinese network. According to the data collection and analysis of the two days of overtime, the evaluation results are as follows: First, the starting point Chinese website, is the leading website in the emerging online novel industry, roughly estimated, accounting for more than 70% of the online novel reading market, the website has registered authors, currently about 100,000 people. Contracted authors, about two thousand, these about two thousand signed authors. According to the standards of the online novel industry, there are about 1,800 authors in the third line, and they are in the second line. About one hundred and fifty people. In the first line, about thirty or forty people, in the top position, about ten people! The president instructed our team to evaluate the starting point of the Chinese website author - Wen Qiu, belongs to the best among the top authors! Because according to our investigation, the starting point was a few months ago, on top of the ordinary A-level author contract, and launched a platinum author contract. And Wen Chou is one of only five platinum authors. β
Speaking of which. Team Leader Li paused for a moment, pursed his lips a little thirsty, and then continued: "Second, according to the information collected by our group, Wen Chou published his novel on the Chinese Internet from around October 03, and his debut novel "Doomsday Wasteland" should be said to be the lowest among all his works, but even so, this novel was successfully published in Taiwan before it was serialized on the Internet, and his second novel was ......"
After reading the manuscript unhurriedly for a long time, Team Leader Li talked about "Magic Sword Eternal" that Lu Yang was currently writing.
"Wen Chou is currently serializing "Magic Sword Eternal" , can be said to be his career, the most popular representative, currently only in the starting point Chinese network click reading, has exceeded 15 million, paid reading, an average of about 30,000, we asked the industry veteran, the senior person told us, the average number of subscribers of about 30,000, in the industry is already the top results, the number of people who watch piracy, is still dozens of times or even hundreds of times, if you count the number of fans accumulated by other works of the ugly, this number may have to double again! It is worth noting that this work has just set a new record for the website, and for five consecutive months, it has won the first place on the website's most competitive monthly ticket list! To sum up, the final evaluation result of our team members is that it is possible to try to invest and purchase adaptation rights, and build a copyright fee of between 1 million and 1.5 million! My report is over!
After Team Leader Li sat down, there was a sound of discussion in the conference room where the modernization process was extremely high.
Adapting online novels as online games, it seems that there is only one "Zhu Xian" in the industry a few years ago, and the game "Zhu Xian" is still in development and has not been released on the market, and no one knows what kind of results can be achieved after it is listed.
The boss took a sip of tea, his eyes swept over the faces of everyone in the conference room, coughed, and asked: "Team Leader Li's assessment is very detailed, it has been finished, what opinions do you have, let's talk about it!"
A deputy director spoke first: "President! Personally, I think it's better to look at this matter slowly! When the perfect "Zhu Xian" is released, and after reading their results, we will decide whether to buy the copyright of this author, I think this is more safe!"
Another deputy director, who usually doesn't deal with him well, sneered and said: "In our industry, you are safe? When others succeed, you will follow suit? Not to mention that the cost of purchasing adaptation rights will increase significantly, will other authors wait for us? Will other companies wait for us? Don't you know why the president urgently ordered Team Leader Li to evaluate the project as quickly as possible? Shanda is already evaluating it! Once Shanda's final evaluation result is positive, the adaptation rights will be sold to Shanda immediately! You must know that the starting point Chinese network is the website of Shanda~! How can we compete with Shanda at that time?"
The deputy director who was refuted said angrily: "Do you also know that Qiqi Chinese Network is a company owned by Shanda? Do you also know that Shanda is evaluating this project? That author is a contracted author of Shanda's website, if Shanda wants to buy it, he will sell us the adaptation rights?"
"Ahem!"
Team Leader Li, who had already completed the evaluation report, deliberately coughed twice at this time, and after attracting everyone's attention, he pushed the frame of his glasses with his hand and reminded: "Let me add, according to the personnel of our team, the starting point Chinese network currently only signs the electronic copyright of all the signed authors, the game adaptation right, and it is still in the hands of the author himself, if our action is fast enough, we can sign the most valuable adaptation value of "Magic Sword Eternal" under the name of Wengu before the grand one!"
The deputy director who had retorted earlier had a smile on his face and looked defiantly at the first deputy director who had spoken.
The deputy director's face became ugly when he was interrupted by Team Leader Li, and he was about to continue to defend himself, when the president had already tapped his fingers on the table, looked at the director, and asked expressionlessly: "Director He, what is your opinion?"
Director He glanced at the faces of the two deputy directors, pondered for a moment, and said: "My opinion is that the copyright can be purchased! A novel that can attract millions of fans is obviously a classic! There should be no problem with the plot, plus the inherent fans of this novel, if we buy the game adaptation rights of this novel, we can expect that at the beginning of the release of this game, there will be at least hundreds of thousands of fan users, which is very valuable!" From the start, it's far more than any game we've designed ourselves!"
After listening to the opinion of the director of the game department, the president pondered for a moment, but still did not say anything, Yan SΓΉ's gaze swept over the entire conference room, swept over everyone's faces, and asked, "Do you have any other opinions?"
Actually, this is nonsense!
There are only three directors in charge of the game department, and the others can be said to be not professionals in the game, three directors and three professionals, two of whom said that they can buy the adaptation rights, who else will object?
Seeing that there was no other opinion, the president nodded and said: "Manager Wang! You are responsible for the purchase of the copyright! Be sure to win the adaptation rights of the novel before the results of the grand evaluation come out! As for the cost, the time is urgent, you can increase it appropriately! Is there a problem?"
Manager Wang: "Guarantee to complete the task!"
President: "Well, that's it! That's it for today's meeting, let's go about it!"
β¦β¦
This concludes the meeting.
β¦β¦
No one expected that Wen Chou's fans were looking for Shanda, and the evaluation results on Shanda's side had not yet come out, but the giants had finalized the results on their side, and they actually wanted to intercept Shanda's Hu!
The task personally assigned by the president, Manager Wang of the copyright department did not dare to slack off, and after walking out of the conference room, the first problem was in front of him.
ββHow did you get in touch with the author named Wen Chou!
Shanda is evaluating this project, at this time, if he directly contacts the starting point Chinese network and asks the website to give him the contact information of Wen Qiu, it will definitely alarm Shanda's side, and at that time, I am afraid that this task will be declared over before it has begun.
At that time, how to explain to the president?
After thinking about it, he walked into the game department, found Team Leader Li who was doing the evaluation this time, and asked Team Leader Li if he had collected the contact information of the author.
As a result, Team Leader Li regretfully told him: "Manager Wang, we are only on the orders of the president this time, just to evaluate whether the author's work has been adapted into a game, and we don't need to go into depth to investigate the author's contact information." β
Manager Wang scratched his head with a little headache, and asked reluctantly: "Lao Li, is it really not?"
Team Leader Li shook his head.
Manager Wang: "Then do you have any way to get the contact information of that author?"
Team Leader Li smiled, and when Manager Wang laughed inexplicably, he said: "This should be okay!" I evaluated this time, and the senior person in the online novel industry I contacted was a senior executive of the starting point Chinese network before, and now he is in charge of another newly opened novel website, he should know the contact information of that author!"
Manager Wang's eyes lit up when he heard this.
If only there was a way!(To be continued......)
PS: Thank you Brother Feng for rewarding 100 coins. I wanted to add more, but I only got the third chapter until now, and I hate myself a little! I'm so incompetent! I'm embarrassed to ask for anything, everyone despises me!
